Patriots Crush N.Y. Jets

Maybe coach Ryan had already anticipated how this weekâ€™s game would turn out when he decided to cry last week; several days in advance of the New England rout today.

This time it wasn’t even close.

The New York football Jets were annihilated 31-14 by the detested Bill Belichick's New England Patriots.

Mark Sanchez was far for the “rookie sensation” of the first three games of the season. He played just as fans should expect a rookie to play—coughing up five turnovers.

The Jets should start thinking about next season as this rate. The team’s confidence is shot. And it’s way too late to make the playoffs even with adjustments, such as quarterback change; this is something Jets coach Rex Ryan should have tried after Sanchez’s second loss.

The rookie is putting far too much pressure on himself. He doesn’t realize he’s not at USC anymore and seems to try too hard sometimes. This is often recipe for disaster, as fans have seen in the last couple of games; all loses. Sanchez now has 14 interceptions against only six touchdowns.

Maybe coach Ryan had already anticipated how this week’s game would turn out when he decided to cry last week; several days in advance of the New England rout today.

The Jets had nothing for the first 30 minutes of the game. They needed a big time win to have any hopes of playing in the post-season. The team fell flat like a rotten tomato with Sanchez offering New England five assists—in the form of four interceptions and a lost fumble at Gillette Stadium. The Jets collapsed to 4-6 while the resurgent division-leading Patriots are now 7-3.

At one point in the second half the Jets were within 10. That’s when Sanchez proved once again that a rookie is a rookie; you can’t bet on a players who several months ago was still really a college player to come into Tom Brady’s and the Patriots’ home and walk away with a win especially after New England’s embarrassing loss last week when the team went for a 4th down play while enjoying a lead, deep in its territory.
